>> these texans, they have a football team there. >> it sounds weird when you hear it. the texans might be better than the cowboys. we're not used to that. this franchise has never made

it. last ye they had it. heñi passed for over 4,700 yard. and andre johnson, the best receiver in the nfl, had over 1,500 receiving yards. here's the crazy thing. the texans opened this season by beating the colts 34-24 in perhaps the biggest win in franchise history. the quarterback and e receiver tandem of schaub and johns hopkins, a nonfactor. the offensive load carried by a little known running back known as aryan foster who is the leading ruer in the nfl. it has only been one week but foster is putti on a show. foster was anundrafted free agent out of the university of tennessee two years ago. coming into the season, he had 257 career rushing yards. sunday, he explod for a texas franchise record 231 yards and three touchdowns. he is a big back. 6'1" and 227 pounds, and he is a very decisive runner. once he sees the hole, he is gone. foster adds a new dimension to

the offen and he will surely be a main focus of the redskins' defense. >> he has that one cut. he is really good at it. and seeing the hole and making that cut and getting up the field. so we have our workut out for us. >> you know the funny thing about it, he is in the same draft class as me. we train together in arizona. and he did not get drafted. and i know what tape of worker he is and the way he worked and the way he carried himself. i knew he was going to be something special. he knew he ad a chip on his shoulder when everybody passed him up. so i knew when texas got him, i knew he was rely going to open some people's eyes. you started to see it last year. this year you see it with the colts. we've got to do a good job, maintaining his run and trying to keep him to a minimum. to where we can get shot

throwing the ball and hope any create some pressure. he said during that sound bite, he reminds you of another one. >> that straight up kind of thing. >> and the long strides. >> powerful strides. >> moving way faster than you think he is. >> it didn't look like he was running faster but he is. >> the guy you just heard from was brian orakpo. the other member of the redskin' defense will be stopping by kyle shanahan's office this week erhaps to pick his brain. why would the defensive players want to quit their offensive width? last year, shanahan was the offensive coordinator in houston. he clearly know the stngths and weaknesses of the texas offensive personnel. kyle shanahan spent four years. the last two seasons he was running the offense. the new offense in washington has some work to do after failing in offensive touchdowns against the cowboys. but it has to help going against aouston defense that shanahan is very familiar with.

>> they know what i like. they know what i don't think is good that they do. vice versa. we've gone against them every day for four years. we know how to attack each other. it is more of a, there is no secret about what we would like to do against each other. >> i think they have a really good understanding of the defense. what would work in the defense. and we'll just be sponges and enjoy everything they have for us. >> it has to be an uusual situation. >> we're not using any of that. that's not how you play the game. you play the game, you just watch the film. just prepare. we don't do thing like that hear. >> we're going to definitely have some type of advantage as far as know what they li to do. they will know what we like to do. it will be the same. whoever comes out. that la guy wa lorenzo alexander. when was the last time you s four guys in a group of sound bit and the coach was the youngest looking person.

>> you're right. >> isn't that crazy? >> you' not used to seeing that. >> no. kyle shanahan is 31 years old. his third season as an offensive coordinator. the nationals have an afternoon game and a spark from an unlikely power source. maxwell had nine careerome runs but three were grand slams. the latest today against the atlanta braves. we start in the top of the second. no sre. justin maxwell gets a fastball. he was waiting on it. maxwell, dare i say, houses this one. a grand slam. thinking, i like that back. they take the 4-0 ñrlead. 4-2 ts. cruising along and that is filled to change up. ends the inning. six strong, gave up two run and struck out six. like a new man since he has been call up from the marijuanas. this is joel peraltaa. a fly ball into shallowcenter.

nyjer morgan loses it. arave at second with no outs. three batters later work the ouxts sean burnett is pitching. he gets martin prado. facing brian mccann. another very good hitter but not hear. the nationals beat the braves 4-2. they take two of three from atlanta. just the second home series loss of the season for the braves. all right. this just out. you guys are familiarñi with cu scores. yours are off the charts. >> i don't know about that. >> cue score. populary poez. lron james is the sixth most disliked figure in sports. his positive rating dropped more than 40% since he left cleveland for mmi ranking higher than lebron on the most disliked figures in sports list, michael

vick, tiger woods, chad ochocinco and terrell owen who's are both receivers for the bengals and kobe bryant. kobe bryant, a little bi@ú surprise. that probably dates back to wn he had some legal problems in colorado a few years back. we do have more nuggets for that. the heisman trophy trust met today themselves decided the trophy given back by reggie bush will remain vacated. in the nfl, eagles quarterback kevin cobb fails his concussion test he won't be able to practice until fridayt the earliest. it looks like making vick will get to start this weekend. speaking of detroit, the former terp quarterback shawn hill used to play in san francisco. he will start for the lions this weekend. he replaces the injured matthew stafford. >> who made up that list? w did they ask? >> they're called t q score

company. >> i wanted to know who they asked. you don't like it? >> no. i don't like it. >> shows you how quickly thing change. >> tiger was not onhat list a year ago. >> thanks. coming up, we'll tell you how they're using twitter to essure i

words alone aren't enough. my job is to lisn to the needs and frustrations of the shrimpers and fishermen, hotel or restaurant workers who lost their jobs to the spill. i'm iris cross. bp has taken full responsibility for the clean up in the gulf and that includes keeping you informed. our job is tlistenand find . that means working with communities.med. restoring the jobs, tourist beaches, and businesses impacted by t spill. we've paiover $400 million in claims and set up a $20 billion independently-run claims fund to cover lost income until people impacted can get back to work. and our efforts aren't coming at tax-payer expense. i know peopleare wonder- now that the well is capped, is bp gonna meet its commitments? i was born in new orleans. my family stillives here.
